2 Poltrone Grand Confort, modello piccolo
Made by Cassina
Designed by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand
Concepita nel 1928 da Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret e Charlotte Perriand, la LC2 inverte le convenzioni dei mobili imbottiti. Laddove le poltrone tradizionali nascondono la loro struttura sotto il tessuto, la LC2 espone interamente il suo telaio tubolare in acciaio, sospendendo al suo interno soffici cuscini come volumi tenuti in una quieta tensione.
Presentata per la prima volta al Salon d'Automne di Parigi nel 1929, il design fu sia una provocazione che una proposta: che la precisione industriale e il comfort umano non erano opposti. L'esoscheletro e il cuscino esistono in un dialogo franco, entrambi visibili, entrambi necessari, nessuno dei due subordinato all'altro.
- Struttura in acciaio tubolare cromato o laccato
- Cuscini di seduta, schienale e braccioli disponibili in pelle o tessuto
- Prodotto da Cassina su licenza della Fondation Le Corbusier

Domande Frequenti
What is the difference between the LC2 and LC3?
The LC2 (petit modèle) and LC3 (grand modèle) share the same structural logic but differ in scale and proportion. The LC3 is deeper and wider, offering a more enveloping seat, while the LC2 has a tighter, more upright profile that reads as crisper and more architectural in a space.
Who designed the LC2 armchair, and when?
The LC2 was designed in 1928 as a collaboration between Le Corbusier, his cousin Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand, who led much of the furniture development in Le Corbusier's atelier. It was first shown publicly at the Salon d'Automne in Paris in 1929.
What leather and fabric options are available for the LC2?
Cassina offers the LC2 in a range of leathers and fabrics from their current collections. The cushions are produced separately from the frame, so upholstery can be specified independently to suit a project's palette and material requirements.
Is the Cassina LC2 an authorized reproduction?
Yes. Cassina has held the exclusive license to produce the Le Corbusier, Jeanneret, and Perriand furniture designs since 1964, granted by the Fondation Le Corbusier. Each piece is manufactured in Italy according to the original design specifications.
How does the LC2 frame finish affect the overall look?
Chromium-plated steel emphasizes the industrial rigor of the design, catching light and reinforcing the frame's presence as a structural gesture. Lacquered finishes allow the frame to recede or contrast against the cushions, shifting the visual weight of the composition.
